Maze of Flott (Japan release) is a unique hybrid arcade game released by Taito in 1989 that blends top-down driving with classic maze exploration. You control a small red automobile navigating a sprawling city to locate and enter various buildings, which serve as dungeon-like mazes. Inside, you must dodge traps, collect scattered treasures, and find magic keys while carefully managing your vehicle’s fuel levels, which can be replenished at petrol stations found throughout the overworld.
How to Play
Your main objective is to explore the city, enter buildings, and collect keys to progress through the mazes while keeping an eye on your fuel gauge. Use the arrow keys to steer your car in four directions. The game also features a dedicated button to perform a quick 180-degree turn to escape dead ends or incoming hazards. Press Shift to insert a coin and Enter to start the game.
Tips
- Watch your fuel: Always plan your route in the city overworld to ensure you can reach a petrol station before running out of gas.
- Master the quick turn: The 180-degree turn maneuver is essential for surviving the tighter dungeon corridors when you get boxed in by traps.
